Holding post awaiting details, but let it be known that team TBALC is a mother fucking RIOT.
48Hours.co.nz… WHY are you so slow to update your shit? You even have twitter this year… and your update on the night of a city finals? Zero. Weak. WEAK.

Titanic Breached: A Lifeboat Crisis.
So I’ve been using Vark for a little over a month, and haven’t really asked any questions, I’m more of an answering kind of guy. They are apparently sending me a tshirt.
Today I thought of a question:
11:42:52 p.m. Me: Can a bullet kill a parrot?
11:42:56 p.m. Vark: Got it. I’m sending your question to someone who knows about **birds**.11:50:42 p.m. Vark:
(From Jack /29/M/Leeds,UK, Re: **birds**)
yes…parrots are non-bulletproof.11:51:33 p.m. Vark: (From Nicola /26/M/Bologna,Italy, Re: **birds**)
yes. and the shark can kill the bullet.11:54:17 p.m. Vark: (From G /M/TheNetherlands, Re: **birds**)

Princess Eugenie rescued after attack in Cambodia, and fair enough to I thought recalling last weeks(?) scandalous stories of filth and being a 19 year old.
But what the hey, that sounds a little interesting, I’ll bite.
And lo, what did I bite?

Thieves tried to rob Queen Elizabeth II’s 19-year-old granddaughter, Princess Eugenie, and her friends while they were travelling in Cambodia, a British newspaper reported on Monday.
OK, with you so far. This sounds like something that the Royal Protection Squad should be on the lookout for.
Royal protection officers had to intervene to protect the princess, the youngest daughter of Prince Andrew, Duke of York, when a thief tried to steal her friend’s purse as they walked through Phnom Penh one night, The Sun said.
Wait, what? We’re quoting The Sun? And is this really an attack? They tried to steal a purse, and it wasn’t even hers (the Royal her), OK well fair enough. Get amongst it squaddies (well, probably elite squadies I suppose)
The two officers tackled the thief but were pelted with stones by another man, forcing them to let him go and focus on getting the princess to safety. They also managed to retrieve the purse.
Huzzah! Tackled. But what’s this? Stone pelting? That’s not we signed up. Protect the princess! Er, from the stones, that we’re being pelted with. PS, grab the purse.
The Sun said it was the first time in ten years that protection officers have stopped a direct threat to a member of the royal family.
OK, this was the bit that actually got me. Is a friend’s purse being stolen a “direct threat” to someone else?
The answer is well no. Of course, we don’t actually have any idea because I’m sure the Royal Protection people look down upon being transparent on incidences like this, and we’re bent through The Sun’s lens and left with who knows what. So, sure, why not. An “attack in Cambodia”. Rock it. Actually there was an attack, it just wasn’t necessarily on the princess.
Having said that, more power to you princess lady. You go have your gap year and rock out. I would.
PS, I quoted that entire article. Not a part of it. That’s right. Bring the fair use. It’s a mighty ~130 words, there really isn’t enough to exert to begin with.
What I won’t expect is a DMCA take down notice… But I guess I might expect it more than Larry Lessig.
Oh, and I for some reason recalled The Summoning, a game I never got into. I believe the players spent most of their time moving inventory around in their rooms? It should not be confused with Summoner, who so importantly provide me with firing magic missiles at the darkness.
And now, quick fire movie trailers. Presented by Peter Jackson aye? And ADAM explains why I’ve been seeing “I’m not Forrest Gump you know” around a bit. I too did not know they gave out rings for the Holocaust.
